Summary:

After the success of the first workshop carried out in Barcelona  with financial institutions and other relevant organizations in Spain, PEP has organized a second edition of the workshop for the assistants of the Passivhaus Spanish national conference.   Among the audience, there were  architects, craftsmen, politicians, bankers and manufacturers. Nearly 300 participants, who work daily in energy retrofits all around the country.

This time Klaus Stocker has presented his experiences during the project and the main conclusions about how to deal with financial barriers in order to achieve the best results in energy retrofits: new strategies and options.  A topic that is of great interest for the audience, due to the difficulties to undertake such projects since the beginning of the economic crisis.

The workshop was carried out in the beginning of a special session focus on retrofits. It was followed by the presentation of four relevant Enerphit projects: a congress center,  a rural hostel, a pavilion of the University and a Civic Center.

The session concluded with a round table where experts and public have discussed about the roadmap of energy retrofits in Spain.
